A prefect setting, gorgeous arts and crafts decor, creative menu, well prepared food, and gracious servers. We had Sunday brunch and in addition to the regular prefix menu, they had a special dish of cornbread in a cast-iron pan, topped with crab and whipped ricotta, which was outstanding. They also featured fresh raspberry ginger lemonade, to which various boozy boosters could be added. Every part of our experience was outstanding. Highly recommend.

Overall it was a good experience. The only thing that was annoying was that I wanted stuffed shells and they were out of the shells so the waitress asked if I wanted someone else that she explained as the same thing just with different noodles. I figured it would be the same price since she made it seem like it was just a different noodle but when I got the bill it was more expensive than I thought. Aside from that the food was good and ambiance was nice

Both the food and wine menus are very good, with a mix of French and Moroccan. The service is attentive but not stuffy. I’ve had this restaurant on my list of new places to try for too long, I should have come sooner. I will be back. I need to try happy hour raclette and other menu items. This really stands out from the Evanston restaurants.

Food was okay. Portions are kind of all over the place. It's a cute, quiet lunch spot during the week, not a lot of activity beyond the blue collar guys coming in for lunch from the neighborhood places. Mac and cheese could use some more seasoning, and maybe a bake in the oven tho.

Disappointing Experience - False Parking Validation Claim I had the unfortunate experience of dining at The Albert today, and I must say it was nothing short of a letdown. First and foremost, I called the restaurant ahead of my reservation to inquire about parking validation. The person on the phone assured me that they indeed offered parking validation services. This information was a significant factor in my decision to choose this restaurant, as parking in the area can be quite costly. However, upon arriving at the restaurant, my high hopes were quickly dashed. To my astonishment, the restaurant refused to validate my parking ticket. It was as if they had no knowledge of the conversation I had just hours before. This blatant miscommunication left me feeling both frustrated and deceived. As for the dining experience itself, it didn't do much to salvage the situation. The waiter recommended a seafood pasta, which ended up being incredibly bland, with the pasta sauce being incredibly watery and nothing short of a homemade pasta meal. The bolognese and Brussels sprouts were much better. Overall, my visit to the Albert was a disastrous affair. The false claim of parking validation, combined with disappointing food, made for an incredibly frustrating experience. I would caution anyone considering dining here to proceed with caution and to confirm any important details, such as parking arrangements, in writing before making the journey.

I love everything about this place! Absolutely the best service and selection of seafood all are high quality and delicious. The ambience is good for any occasion and the restaurant is very clean. The staff are accommodating, kind and very on task. Food is always served very hot, good quantities and fair prices. BEST seafood place I have been to in a long time and the only place I will go with when I crave a seafood boil platter. Excellent in every aspect you could want in a restaurant. They supply you with all the necessities also like scissors, gloves, claw cracker and plenty napkins. The scissors are what made me think this place pays attention to detail and boy they did not disappoint! MUST GO! MUST RETURN!

Food was absolutely delicious and our waiter was excellent. My one complaint is that when I asked the hostess about the happy hour specials, she said "Your server will explain that" and then she sat us down. I was later told by our server that the happy hour specials did not usually apply in the dining room but he would be ok with it. If that was the case, why didn't the hostess tell us that before sitting us down? In the end, we got the deals, it just didn't seem like the best way of operating.
